Vangelo secondo Giovanni - John 5

GREEK BIBLE	NEW AMERICAN BIBLE
1 Μετα ταυτα ητο εορτην των Ιουδαιων, και ανεβη ο Ιησους εις Ιεροσολυμα.	1 After this, there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
2 Ειναι δε εν τοις Ιεροσολυμοις πλησιον της προβατικης πυλης κολυμβηθρα, η επονομαζομενη Εβραιστι Βηθεσδα, εχουσα πεντε στοας.	2 Now there is in Jerusalem at the Sheep (Gate) a pool called in Hebrew Bethesda, with five porticoes.
3 Εν ταυταις κατεκειτο πληθος πολυ των ασθενουντων, τυφλων, χωλων, ξηρων, οιτινες περιεμενον την κινησιν του υδατος.	3 In these lay a large number of ill, blind, lame, and crippled.
4 Διοτι αγγελος κατεβαινε κατα καιρον εις την κολυμβηθραν και εταραττε το υδωρ? οστις λοιπον εισηρχετο πρωτος μετα την ταραχην του υδατος, εγινετο υγιης απο οποιανδηποτε νοσον επασχεν.	4
5 Ητο δε εκει ανθρωπος τις τριακοντα οκτω ετη πασχων ασθενειαν.	5 One man was there who had been ill for thirty-eight years.
6 Τουτον ιδων ο Ιησους κατακειμενον, και εξευρων οτι πολυν ηδη καιρον πασχει, λεγει προς αυτον? Θελεις να γεινης υγιης;	6 When Jesus saw him lying there and knew that he had been ill for a long time, he said to him, "Do you want to be well?"
7 Απεκριθη προς αυτον ο ασθενων? Κυριε, ανθρωπον δεν εχω, δια να με βαλη εις την κολυμβηθραν, οταν ταραχθη το υδωρ? ενω δε ερχομαι εγω, αλλος προ εμου καταβαινει.	7 The sick man answered him, "Sir, I have no one to put me into the pool when the water is stirred up; while I am on my way, someone else gets down there before me."
8 Λεγει προς αυτον ο Ιησους? Εγερθητι, σηκωσον τον κραββατον σου και περιπατει.	8 Jesus said to him, "Rise, take up your mat, and walk."
9 Και ευθυς εγεινεν ο ανθρωπος υγιης και εσηκωσε τον κραββατον αυτου, και περιεπατει. Ητο δε σαββατον εκεινην την ημεραν.	9 Immediately the man became well, took up his mat, and walked. Now that day was a sabbath.
10 Ελεγον λοιπον οι Ιουδαιοι προς τον τεθεραπευμενον? Σαββατον ειναι? Δεν σοι ειναι συγκεχωρημενον να σηκωσης τον κραββατον.	10 So the Jews said to the man who was cured, "It is the sabbath, and it is not lawful for you to carry your mat."
11 Απεκριθη προς αυτους? Ο ιατρευσας με, εκεινος μοι ειπε? Σηκωσον τον κραββατον σου, και περιπατει.	11 He answered them, "The man who made me well told me, 'Take up your mat and walk.'"
12 Ηρωτησαν λοιπον αυτον? Τις ειναι ο ανθρωπος, οστις σοι ειπε, Σηκωσον τον κραββατον σου και περιπατει;	12 They asked him, "Who is the man who told you, 'Take it up and walk'?"
13 Ο δε ιατρευθεις δεν ηξευρε τις ειναι? διοτι ο Ιησους υπεξηλθεν, επειδη ητο οχλος πολυς εν τω τοπω.	13 The man who was healed did not know who it was, for Jesus had slipped away, since there was a crowd there.
14 Μετα ταυτα ευρισκει αυτον ο Ιησους εν τω ιερω και ειπε προς αυτον? Ιδου, εγεινες υγιης? μηκετι αμαρτανε, δια να μη σοι γεινη τι χειροτερον.	14 After this Jesus found him in the temple area and said to him, "Look, you are well; do not sin any more, so that nothing worse may happen to you."
15 Υπηγε λοιπον ο ανθρωπος και ανηγγειλε προς τους Ιουδαιους οτι ο Ιησους ειναι ο ιατρευσας αυτον.	15 The man went and told the Jews that Jesus was the one who had made him well.
16 Και δια τουτο κατετρεχον τον Ιησουν οι Ιουδαιοι και εζητουν να θανατωσωσιν αυτον, διοτι εκαμνε ταυτα εν σαββατω.	16 Therefore, the Jews began to persecute Jesus because he did this on a sabbath.
17 Ο δε Ιησους απεκριθη προς αυτους? Ο Πατηρ μου εργαζεται εως τωρα, και εγω εργαζομαι.	17 But Jesus answered them, "My Father is at work until now, so I am at work."
18 Δια τουτο λοιπον μαλλον εζητουν οι Ιουδαιοι να θανατωσωσιν αυτον, διοτι ουχι μονον παρεβαινε το σαββατον, αλλα και Πατερα εαυτου ελεγε τον Θεον, ισον με τον Θεον καμνων εαυτον.	18 For this reason the Jews tried all the more to kill him, because he not only broke the sabbath but he also called God his own father, making himself equal to God.
19 Απεκριθη λοιπον ο Ιησους και ειπε προς αυτους? Αληθως, αληθως σας λεγω, δεν δυναται ο Υιος να πραττη ουδεν αφ' εαυτου, εαν δεν βλεπη τον Πατερα πραττοντα τουτο? επειδη οσα εκεινος πραττει, ταυτα και ο Υιος πραττει ομοιως.	19 Jesus answered and said to them, "Amen, amen, I say to you, a son cannot do anything on his own, but only what he sees his father doing; for what he does, his son will do also.
20 Διοτι ο Πατηρ αγαπα τον Υιον και δεικνυει εις αυτον παντα οσα αυτος πραττει, και μεγαλητερα τουτων εργα θελει δειξει εις αυτον, δια να θαυμαζητε σεις.	20 For the Father loves his Son and shows him everything that he himself does, and he will show him greater works than these, so that you may be amazed.
21 Επειδη καθως ο Πατηρ εγειρει τους νεκρους και ζωοποιει, ουτω και ο Υιος ουστινας θελει ζωοποιει.	21 For just as the Father raises the dead and gives life, so also does the Son give life to whomever he wishes.
22 Επειδη ουδε κρινει ο Πατηρ ουδενα, αλλ' εις τον Υιον εδωκε πασαν την κρισιν,	22 Nor does the Father judge anyone, but he has given all judgment to his Son,
23 δια να τιμωσι παντες τον Υιον καθως τιμωσι τον Πατερα. Ο μη τιμων τον Υιον δεν τιμα τον Πατερα τον πεμψαντα αυτον.	23 so that all may honor the Son just as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent him.
24 Αληθως, αληθως σας λεγω οτι ο ακουων τον λογον μου και πιστευων εις τον πεμψαντα με εχει ζωην αιωνιον, και εις κρισιν δεν ερχεται, αλλα μετεβη εκ του θανατου εις την ζωην.	24 Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever hears my word and believes in the one who sent me has eternal life and will not come to condemnation, but has passed from death to life.
25 Αληθως, αληθως σας λεγω οτι ερχεται ωρα, και ηδη ειναι, οτε οι νεκροι θελουσιν ακουσει την φωνην του Υιου του Θεου, και οι ακουσαντες θελουσι ζησει.	25 Amen, amen, I say to you, the hour is coming and is now here when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will live.
26 Διοτι καθως ο Πατηρ εχει ζωην εν εαυτω, ουτως εδωκε και εις τον Υιον να εχη ζωην εν εαυτω?	26 For just as the Father has life in himself, so also he gave to his Son the possession of life in himself.
27 και εξουσιαν εδωκεν εις αυτον να καμνη και κρισιν, διοτι ειναι Υιος ανθρωπου.	27 And he gave him power to exercise judgment, because he is the Son of Man.
28 Μη θαυμαζετε τουτο? διοτι ερχεται ωρα, καθ' ην παντες οι εν τοις μνημειοις θελουσιν ακουσει την φωνην αυτου,	28 Do not be amazed at this, because the hour is coming in which all who are in the tombs will hear his voice
29 και θελουσιν εξελθει οι πραξαντες τα αγαθα εις αναστασιν ζωης, οι δε πραξαντες τα φαυλα εις αναστασιν κρισεως.	29 and will come out, those who have done good deeds to the resurrection of life, but those who have done wicked deeds to the resurrection of condemnation.
30 Δεν δυναμαι εγω να καμνω απ' εμαυτου ουδεν. Καθως ακουω κρινω, και η κρισις η εμη δικαια ειναι? διοτι δεν ζητω το θελημα το εμον, αλλα το θελημα του πεμψαντος με Πατρος.	30 "I cannot do anything on my own; I judge as I hear, and my judgment is just, because I do not seek my own will but the will of the one who sent me.
31 Εαν εγω μαρτυρω περι εμαυτου, η μαρτυρια μου δεν ειναι αληθης.	31 "If I testify on my own behalf, my testimony cannot be verified.
32 Αλλος ειναι ο μαρτυρων περι εμου, και εξευρω οτι ειναι αληθης η μαρτυρια, την οποιαν μαρτυρει περι εμου.	32 But there is another who testifies on my behalf, and I know that the testimony he gives on my behalf is true.
33 Σεις απεστειλατε προς τον Ιωαννην, και εμαρτυρησεν εις την αληθειαν?	33 You sent emissaries to John, and he testified to the truth.
34 εγω δε παρα ανθρωπου δεν λαμβανω την μαρτυριαν, αλλα λεγω ταυτα δια να σωθητε σεις.	34 I do not accept testimony from a human being, but I say this so that you may be saved.
35 Εκεινος ητο ο λυχνος ο καιομενος και φεγγων, και σεις ηθελησατε να αγαλλιασθητε προς ωραν εις το φως αυτου.	35 He was a burning and shining lamp, and for a while you were content to rejoice in his light.
36 Αλλ' εγω εχω την μαρτυριαν μεγαλητεραν της του Ιωαννου? διοτι τα εργα, τα οποια μοι εδωκεν ο Πατηρ δια να τελειωσω αυτα, αυτα τα εργα, τα οποια εγω πραττω, μαρτυρουσι περι εμου οτι ο Πατηρ με απεστειλε?	36 But I have testimony greater than John's. The works that the Father gave me to accomplish, these works that I perform testify on my behalf that the Father has sent me.
37 και ο πεμψας με Πατηρ, αυτος εμαρτυρησε περι εμου. Ουτε φωνην αυτου ηκουσατε πωποτε ουτε οψιν αυτου ειδετε.	37 Moreover, the Father who sent me has testified on my behalf. But you have never heard his voice nor seen his form,
38 Και τον λογον αυτου δεν εχετε μενοντα εν εαυτοις, διοτι σεις δεν πιστευετε εις τουτον, τον οποιον εκεινος απεστειλεν.	38 and you do not have his word remaining in you, because you do not believe in the one whom he has sent.
39 Ερευνατε τας γραφας, διοτι σεις νομιζετε οτι εν αυταις εχετε ζωην αιωνιον? και εκειναι ειναι αι μαρτυρουσαι περι εμου?	39 You search the scriptures, because you think you have eternal life through them; even they testify on my behalf.
40 πλην δεν θελετε να ελθητε προς εμε, δια να εχητε ζωην.	40 But you do not want to come to me to have life.
41 Δοξαν παρα ανθρωπων δεν λαμβανω?	41 "I do not accept human praise;
42 αλλα σας εγνωρισα οτι την αγαπην του Θεου δεν εχετε εν εαυτοις?	42 moreover, I know that you do not have the love of God in you.
43 εγω ηλθον εν τω ονοματι του Πατρος μου, και δεν με δεχεσθε? εαν αλλος ελθη εν τω ονοματι εαυτου, εκεινον θελετε δεχθη.	43 I came in the name of my Father, but you do not accept me; yet if another comes in his own name, you will accept him.
44 Πως δυνασθε σεις να πιστευσητε, οιτινες λαμβανετε δοξαν ο εις παρα του αλλου, και δεν ζητειτε την δοξαν την παρα του μονου Θεου;	44 How can you believe, when you accept praise from one another and do not seek the praise that comes from the only God?
45 Μη νομιζετε οτι εγω θελω σας κατηγορησει προς τον Πατερα? υπαρχει ο κατηγορος σας ο Μωυσης, εις τον οποιον σεις ηλπισατε.	45 Do not think that I will accuse you before the Father: the one who will accuse you is Moses, in whom you have placed your hope.
46 Διοτι εαν επιστευετε εις τον Μωυσην, ηθελετε πιστευσει εις εμε? επειδη περι εμου εκεινος εγραψεν.	46 For if you had believed Moses, you would have believed me, because he wrote about me.
47 Εαν δε εις τα γεγραμμενα εκεινου δεν πιστευητε, πως θελετε πιστευσει εις τους ιδικους μου λογους;	47 But if you do not believe his writings, how will you believe my words?"
